"Quinn, no. Put that back."

"Rachel, you know I don't like Raisin Bran!"

"Yes I know that. However, it's not exactly healthy to be eating Captain Crunch every day!"

Quinn pouts and puts the cereal box back on the shelf, "Fine."

"I'm just teasing," Rachel laughs and leans over for a kiss. "I'll get both," she says as she grabs the box and puts it in the basket.

The blonde smiles and shakes her head. The two had been doing some late night shopping at the grocery store for over an hour. And even with their minor bickering, Quinn loves doing these things with Rachel.

"Oh! I forgot to grab baking soda. I'll be right back!" Rachel says as she quickly scurries off.

Quinn sighs and slowly pushes the shopping cart forward and out of the way of the people around her. Everything was just kind of tossed inside the basket and piled together. So she takes the time to reorganize everything.

It takes her all of five minutes and she frowns when she looks around to see that Rachel still hasn't come back yet.

She pushes the cart around the store for a while until she finally spots her girlfriend talking to someone she's never seen before. She leaves the cart at the end of the aisle and approaches Rachel and the exceptionally handsome stranger that she was talking to.

"Everything okay?" Quinn asks as she eyes them both.

Rachel turns to her with wide eyes.

"Oh! I didn't realize you were here with someone," the man says. He holds his hand out to Quinn and smiles, "I'm Brody, a friend of Rachel's."

She half heartedly shakes his hand. So this was that Brody guy...

Feeling inferior in his presence, Quinn suddenly forgets how to speak and looks to Rachel.

"This is my...friend, Quinn," the woman says.

She looks at Rachel incredulously. Because really?

"It's nice to meet you," Brody says.

"Yeah, you too. I've heard so much about you," she mumbles.

With the possessive side of her taking over, she reaches over to wrap her arm around Rachel's waist, only for the woman to shrug her off as subtly as possible. The action makes Quinn feel even smaller.

Brody seems to notice the tension and clears his throat, "Well anyway, it was nice catching up with you, Rachel. I hope to hear from you soon."

She smiles politely as he leans down to hug her and awkwardly returns the embrace. She knows that the blonde next to her is likely fuming right now, but she doesn't want to be rude.

He looks at Quinn and nods before disappearing around the corner.

The two girls stand there in silence for a moment until Rachel turns and walks back to the cart. She freezes when Quinn catches up to her and tries to lock their hands together.

"Quinn..." she warns.

The girl instantly drops her hand. Rachel chances a glance at her and sees that her face is completely stoic.

"Did we get everything?" Quinn asks.

Rachel winces at the tone of her voice. It was cold and distant and she didn't like it one bit.

She sighs, "Yeah, I think so."

"Okay." The blonde wordlessly walks in front of her to the checkout area.

She knows that Quinn is obviously upset. She has a right to be. And Rachel also knows she'll have to talk with her as soon as she can to fix this.

They walk to the car in silence and load all of the bags into the back. As soon as they're on the road back to her house, Rachel over down to take Quinn's free hand into hers.

She's shouldn't be surprised when Quinn pulls her hand away, but it still hurts. And Rachel knows that she deserves it.

When they get back to the house, she tries to start getting the bags down, but Quinn insists that she doesn't have to worry about it and tells her to go inside. She huffs and does as she's told.

A little while later, after they get everything put away in the kitchen, Rachel turns to see Quinn organizing everything in the fridge.

"Quinn?"

"Hmm?" The blonde keeps her attention focused on the task at hand.

Rachel walks over and wraps her arms around her from behind.

"Please don't shut me out," she whispers. "Talk to me, baby."

Quinn stops and closes the fridge. She turns around to face the other woman. "What do you want me to say, Rachel?"

"Quinn please..."

"And you're really telling me not to shut you out when that's exactly what you did at the store?"

She tries to walk away, but Rachel yanks on her hand and doesn't let go.

"I know! I'm sorry. I just got nervous."

"Oh, so Brody made you nervous?"

"No! It's just that we were in public and -"

"Don't pull that excuse on me. You've never had an issue with kissing me or holding my hand in public. And now all of the sudden you do once this Brody guy shows up?"

She slips her hands out of Rachel's grasp and storms out of the kitchen. The woman chases after her.

"Don't you walk away from me!"

Quinn heads straight for the front door and Rachel has to use all of her strength to keep her from reaching it. The blonde relents and allows herself to be dragged back.

"Sit down!" Rachel shoves her onto the couch and glares down at her. "You're not going anywhere until we get past this. I don't care how long it takes!"

The younger girl rolls her eyes and crosses her arms. Only Rachel...

"Okay fine. Let's talk. You run into Brody and as soon as I show up, you push me away. And you don't even tell him that I'm your girlfriend!" Quinn shouts. "Is that how it's always going to be? I'm just 'your friend, Quinn'? Are you really that ashamed of me?"

"Of course not!" Rachel starts pacing. "I just didn't want him to find out that I'm dating the girl that's technically my niece."

Quinn watches her move around the room from her place on the couch. "Have you told him that I'm your niece?"

"No."

"Then what's the problem?"

"I don't know! Okay? I'm sorry. I just wasn't thinking and I panicked."

"Fine. I forgive you. But if we ever run into him again, he's going to know that you're mine."

Rachel stops, "Are you seriously jealous of Brody?"

"Of course I am! Have you seen him?"

"You're being ridiculous."

"And you went on a date with him!"

"One date that led to nothing. And I'm with you now. So obviously there won't be another date."

"Did you sleep with him?"

"What?" Rachel shrieks. "No! We just kissed. I swear."

Quinn's eyes widen in shock, "That's even worse!"

Despite everything, Rachel can't help but chuckle at the adorableness that was Quinn.

"Baby," she says softly. "How is that worse?"

"I don't know. It just is!"

Rachel smiles and finally sits next to the blonde. "Trust me. The only thing I got out of kissing him was realizing that I liked kissing you a lot more."

Quinn tries to argue, but Rachel presses their lips together to emphasize her point. And also to shut her up.

The action seems to have relaxed Quinn a little. "Just thinking about anyone kissing you hurts so much."

"Trust me. I know. That's why I lose it when I think that you were almost with Marley."

Quinn sighs, "Rachel, we've talked about that."

"I know! And I've been nice so far, right?"

"I guess so."

"Humor me for once," Rachel groans dramatically.

Quinn laughs for the first time since they got back. "You're cute."

"Am I?" Rachel nuzzles into Quinn's neck.

"Definitely." She wraps her arm around the woman's shoulder and holds her close. "And I'm sorry for going off like that. I just don't want you to be ashamed of me."

"I'm not ashamed of you, Quinn. I've already told you that I can't wait to show you off to the whole world when we're ready."

"Yeah?" Quinn smiles.

"Of course. And I also can't wait to laugh in everyone's stupid faces when they see that I'm the one that gets to be on your arm."

Quinn snorts, "If you say so."

"I do." She tilts her head to plant a kiss on the girl's neck. "And I'm sorry. I promise I'll never do that again."

"I know," Quinn murmurs.

"Good."

"I think we've just survived our first actual fight."

"That wasn't too bad. So, now what?"

"Now I remind you that love you."

Rachel's heart soars. "I love you too. More than anything."

She pulls the girl in for a deep kiss and moans when Quinn grips her waist even tighter.

She stops the kiss and smirks at the confused girl. Something else that they can do after a fight just came to her...

She says sweetly, "Quinn?"

"Yes?"

"Did I tell you that I went to the doctor on Monday?"

Quinn frowns with concern, "No? What's wrong? Is everything okay?"

She licks her lips, "Everything is fine. I just needed to get a prescription."

"A prescription?"

"For birth control."

She stares with lust-filled eyes as realization dawns on Quinn.

"Oh." To say the girl was excited is an understatement. The two hadn't been together like that since their first time. "That was smart of you."

"Mhmm. Of course I had to take it for a few days for it to kick in first. But I think it should be safe by now."

"Is it?" Quinn's eyes darken. She's so ready to pounce...

And Rachel is starting to feel like helpless prey. "Yes," she says huskily.

"So I can..."

"Yes."

"Do you want me to..."

"No. I need you to cum inside of me. Right now."

And that's all it takes for Quinn to attack. Their lips crash together and their hands start exploring everywhere. Both girls' shirts and bras are ripped off and thrown somewhere on the floor.

Their mouths stay fused together as Quinn roughly gropes Rachel's breast and tweaks a nipple. She moans loudly when the woman starts palming her through her jeans.

Rachel can't wait any longer. She stands up from the couch and quickly pulls her own pants and underwear down.

"Can I ride you?" she asks as she shrugs them off of her feet.

"I don't know," Quinn challenges as she lifts her hips to slide off her jeans and boxers. She takes hold of her completely hard cock and smirks as she begins stroking it, "Can you?"

Rachel doesn't answer and instead plants her knees on the couch to straddle her.

"You know you never have to ask," Quinn says right before she kisses her again. Being in this position on the couch suddenly reminds her of their very first kiss.

"I know, baby." Rachel wraps a fist around the hard member beneath her and moves to hover over it.

She places the head at her entrance and leans down to kiss Quinn once more. "I love you."

"I love you, Rachel."

With those words, the woman slowly sinks down inch by inch onto her. Quinn watches in amazement as she now has a clear view of her cock disappearing between Rachel's folds.

"Oh god," Rachel whimpers.

When the woman raises herself back up, Quinn watches as her shaft reappears, glistened in Rachel's wetness.

"Fuck," she breathes out.

After a few thrusts, Rachel is finally adjusting to her girth and gets a steady rhythm going. Quinn's gently holds onto her hips to help guide her.

She knows that Rachel is in control right now. The woman has her hands braced on the back of the couch as her speed increases.

"God, baby. That feels amazing. You're such a pro at this," Quinn says.

Rachel shakes her head with hooded eyes. "Only for you," she pants and connects their lips.

Quinn gently rubs her thumb over the woman's protruding clit.

"Fuck! Quinn!"

She slams down harder and moves her hips even faster.

The blonde knows that Rachel is close already.

"That's it, Rach. Just like that," she murmurs as the other girl continues to bounce on her dick relentlessly.

She presses harder on her clit. And when her movements become more sloppy, she can tell that Rachel is just about there.

Sure enough, she feels the woman tightening around her cock.

"Ahh! Quinn!"

Quinn thrusts up into her to help prolong Rachel's orgasm. And it seems to work as she feels the tight walls fluttering around her for what seems like forever.

"Quinn. Fuck, Quinn," Rachel chants over and over. "God..."

She slumps forward and wraps her arms around the blonde's neck when she finally comes down. Quinn softly runs her hands up and down her back.

"Still alive?"

She smiles when she hears Rachel laugh. The woman pulls her head up and rests their foreheads together.

"Why didn't you finish?"

"I'm going to. I just wanted to get you off first. And I figured you could use an intermission."

Rachel scoffs, "Quinn, I swear if you don't -Ah!"

She squeals when Quinn suddenly stands and turns them around to gently lay Rachel on the couch.

The girl kneels between her spread thighs and asks, "You were saying?"

Rachel narrows her eyes playfully, "Nothing."

She gasps when Quinn pushes into her hard. The girl is still kneeling as she holds the woman's hips in place while she pumps in and out.

Rachel thinks that they're too far apart right now. "Baby, come here," she says as she pulls the girl to lay her body on top of hers.

Quinn does so and kisses her again. She then moves her head to whisper into Rachel's ear, "You're so amazing."

"So are you." Rachel digs her fingertips into the blonde's shoulders as their lower bodies move together faster. "And you're fucking me so good right now."

Her legs spread further apart as she feels Quinn going deeper inside of her.

"Jesus baby. I'm so close," Quinn groans.

Rachel holds her even tighter. "I know. Me too."

It's as if she can feel Quinn everywhere inside of her.

She tangles her hand into blonde hair as she feels her second orgasm of the night approaching. "Quinn," she gasps out as she lets it consume her once again.

When she feels Rachel's tight channel contracting around her, Quinn releases herself as deep inside of the woman as she can.

"Fuck," she moans as it continuously shoots out of her.

Rachel feels the hot liquid filling her up and rasps out, "Yes, Quinn. Just like that, baby..."

Quinn cums as much as she can and only slows down her thrusting when she knows that she's completely empty. She rests her head on Rachel's chest while they catch their breaths together.

The woman softly stokes her hair and presses a kiss to the top of her head. "I love you," she says.

"I love you too." Quinn braces herself on her elbows to pull out of Rachel, but stops when the brunette holds her in place.

"No. You're staying right here."

Quinn chuckles and rests her weight back down, "If you say so."

"I do. And your cock belongs to me now. So I can do whatever I please with it."

"Oh my god, Rachel..."

"Well it's true," Rachel smirks.

Quinn pecks her lips and says, "How do you go from being so sweet one minute to incredibly filthy the next?"

She shrugs, "You bring this side out of me, Quinn. You turned something on in me that I never knew was there before. I'm so crazy about you and you make me want to do things I've never wanted to do before."

"I find that hard to believe," Quinn teases.

"Well believe it."

They lay together like that for a few more minutes before Quinn finally pulls herself out of a pouting Rachel and sits up on the couch.

She groans when she sees drops of her cum leaking out of Rachel's hole.

"So fucking hot," she mumbles.

Rachel snakes her hand down to spread her pussy lips apart. She quirks an eyebrow when she sees Quinn's member hardening while she watches her. "That didn't take long," she smirks.

"For you, it never does," the blonde strokes herself slowly. "Do you wanna go again?"

The woman quickly stands and pulls an eager Quinn up with her. "Let's take this to my room. There's a perfectly good bed that we should be using..."

After that eventful night, a couple of more days pass in the blink of an eye.

And one of the days that Quinn had been secretly dreading was finally here. It was the day that Santana was leaving for California with Brittany.

She had been spending the past couple days with her best friend as well as Puck and Brittany. And now that the day was here, Quinn wishes that she could have spent even more time with her.

Everyone was gathered at Brittany's house and helping them load everything into one car. Brittany's parent were currently in the house trying to get her cat into the kennel. Santana and Quinn's parents were outside along with Rachel. And it was just about time for Santana and Brittany to leave.

"I think that's everything," Puck says as he and Russell shove the last box into the trunk.

"We finally got Lord Tubbington," Brittany's dad says as he walks down the driveway with the cat in tow.

Brittany nods and looks at Santana, "Are you ready?"

The girl sighs, "Yeah. Let's get this over with."

The two girls start making their rounds to say goodbye to everyone.

Brittany bounces up to Quinn first and nearly suffocates her with an enormous hug. "Bye Quinn! You'll come visit us, right?"

"Of course. I've never been to California before."

"So you promise that you'll come soon?"

Quinn smiles, "I promise."

Britanny pecks her cheek before moving on to Puck.

Santana approaches Quinn next. Rachel can't help but watch the interaction curiously.

Judy leans over to whisper in her ear, "Poor Quinn looks like she's trying so hard not to cry."

Rachel nods. Seeing the girl like this was breaking her heart.

Quinn doesn't say anything and instead pulls her friend into a tight embrace.

"I'm gonna miss you, Q-tip," Santana mumbles sadly.

The blonde squeezes her tighter, "Me too."

When they pull apart, she says, "Look, I -"

"I know, Quinn," the other girl smiles. "Don't be getting all gay on me now. Your ass is gonna come visit soon."

Quinn laughs, "I know."

Santana nods, "Okay. I'll call you when we get there."

"Okay."

They hug one last time before Santana goes to Judy.

"Take care of yourself, sweetie."

"I will, Judes," Santana smiles. "And thank you for everything."

She then approaches Rachel. The woman is hesitant at first, but pulls the girl into a hug nonetheless.

"Be careful down there," Rachel says.

"I will." Santana leans over to whisper into her ear, "And you'd better take care of Quinn."

When they pull apart, Rachel gives a reassuring smile as well as a nod.

Satisfied with the response, Santana goes on to say bye to everyone else.

Rachel looks over to see Quinn with her arms wrapped around herself, looking so fragile.

The woman doesn't hesitate to walk over to her and lay a hand on her shoulder. Quinn smiles at the gesture and Rachel tries so hard to express her touch that everything was going to be okay.

She wants so badly to hold her and kiss her. But she knows that they can't do that here.

Quinn knows it too. But she also knows that she can feel all the love Rachel has for her with just one simple touch. And it's enough to get her through today.

Later that evening, the two finally get back to Rachel's house and have some time alone.

Seeing Santana off was more emotional than Rachel was anticipating, and she was exhausted. She wanted to rest. But first, she had to make sure that Quinn was okay.

She pulls the girl into her bedroom the lay down. As soon as they hit the bed, Quinn's eyes start watering.

The blonde quickly wipes at them and sniffles, "I'm sorry. I'm just -"

"I know, baby," Rachel soothes. "It's okay."
